Whiplash

The most common cause of whiplash is car accidents. The speed that the car is traveling may not relate to the intensity of the neck injury. Often slow speeds produce enough energy to cause whiplash in accidents. Whiplash is most commonly caused by a motor vehicle accident in which the car the person is riding in is not moving, and is hit from a vehicle from behind without notice. Rear impact causes the head and neck to be forced into hyperextension as the seat pushes forward and the head and neck fall backwards. A person who has whiplash will feel symptoms including:

Tenderness along the back, neck and shoulders

Neck swelling

Muscle spasms in neck and shoulders

Difficulty flexing, extending or moving head

Headaches

Difficult time sleeping

Fatigue

Jaw tightness

Difficulty chewing

Signs of nerve irritation
